{{TCsT|The opener of the 24th annual "Treehouse of Horror" is from [[Guillermo del Toro]] and features monsters and classic characters from horror films throughout history. In the first of three spine-tingling stories, [[Homer]] rides around Springfield wreaking havoc in a rhyming take on a popular children's tale. In "Dead and Shoulders," [[Bart]] is beheaded during a kite accident, his head is attached to [[Lisa]]'s body and they must live together as one. The final terrifying tale, "Freaks no Geeks," features [[Mr. Burns]]' traveling circus, [[The Burnsum and Bailey Circus]], which has stopped in Springfieldland in the 1930s. Trapeze artist [[Marge]] and [[The Strong Man|Strong Man Homer]] are performers and things go awry when circus freak Moe starts to make advances towards Marge.|7|color=white}}

Season 25 of The Simpsons is the season that aired during the 2013–14 United States network television schedule. It began on September 29, 2013 with "Homerland" and ended on May 18, 2014 with "The Yellow Badge of Cowardge".

Shortly before the season's second episode, the show was renewed for a twenty-sixth season.[1] The first table read for the season was on March 7, 2013.[2] This season premiered on September 29, 2013 with the episode "Homerland" and ended on May 18, 2014 with "The Yellow Badge of Cowardge".
